Design Decisions
The structure of this talk page is copied from the article so you can find the part you want easily.
Why is it important for each child to have a computer? What's wrong with community-access centers?
Why not a desktop computer, or—even better—a recycled desktop machine?
Why not just give children cell phones?
What about technical support? Would the children's ownership of them lead to sufficiently greater care that technical support becomes unnecessary?
First Generation Project
When do you anticipate these laptops reaching the market?
What do you see as the biggest hurdles?
Hardware
How is it possible to get the cost so low?
Considering the millions to be built, will it be recyclable?
How many amps will be needed to run this machine?
Guess is 2 (up to 15) watts. Voltages? Nitpicker 21:37, 5 October 2006 (EDT)
What are the plans for the battery?
Keep the AltairNano Lithium Ion SAFE battery in mind for power to weight and long life combined with fast recharge from power line. Probably too expensive this year, but ask. Nitpicker 21:37, 5 October 2006 (EDT)
